| Targets |
C188 targets the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). Specifically, it binds to the STAT3 SH2 domain, which is the region responsible for recognizing phosphorylated tyrosine residues on receptor complexes. By binding to this pocket, C188 disrupts STAT3 SH2/pY-peptide binding and inhibits IL-6-mediated STAT3 phosphorylation. This prevents STAT3 from dimerizing, translocating to the nucleus, and activating the transcription of target genes.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, C188 is a potent and selective STAT3 inhibitor. It inhibits IL-6-stimulated STAT3 Tyr705 phosphorylation with an IC50 of 73 µM and nuclear translocation with an IC50 of 39 µM in HepG2 cells. It has an IC50 of 20 µM for disrupting STAT3 SH2/pY-peptide binding. It exhibits little effect against IFN-γ-stimulated STAT1 phosphorylation, demonstrating its selectivity for STAT3 over STAT1.
|
| ln Vivo |
C188 is a research tool and is not a therapeutic agent. Its in vivo effects are related to its ability to inhibit STAT3 signaling. By blocking STAT3, it can modulate various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, survival, and inflammation. Its effects in animal models would be attributed to the inhibition of STAT3-mediated gene expression.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro activity of C188 against STAT3 is determined using biochemical and cellular assays. In a cell-free assay, the STAT3 SH2 domain is incubated with a fluorescently labeled phosphopeptide and varying concentrations of C188. The displacement of the peptide is measured, and the IC50 is calculated. This assay directly measures the compound's ability to bind to the STAT3 SH2 domain.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for C188 involve studying its effect on STAT3 signaling in cells. In a typical protocol, cells (e.g., HepG2) are stimulated with IL-6 to activate STAT3. The cells are pretreated with C188, and the levels of phosphorylated STAT3 (Tyr705) are measured by Western blot or ELISA. The compound's ability to inhibit STAT3 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation is assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
The in vivo efficacy of C188 can be evaluated in animal models of cancer or inflammatory diseases. In a typical protocol, the compound is administered to tumor-bearing mice via intraperitoneal or oral administration. Tumor growth is monitored, and at the end of the study, tumors are analyzed for STAT3 phosphorylation and downstream target gene expression. The compound's ability to inhibit tumor growth is a measure of its in vivo activity.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
C188 is a small molecule with a molecular weight of 370.19 and a molecular formula of C₂₀H₁₈N₂O₅. It is typically supplied as a powder for research use. Its solubility is enhanced in DMSO. As a research chemical, detailed pharmacokinetic data are not typically reported, as its primary use is in preclinical studies to probe STAT3 function.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
C188 is a research tool and is not a therapeutic agent. Its toxicity profile is not extensively documented. Standard safety precautions should be taken when handling the compound. At concentrations used in in vitro assays, it is not considered highly toxic. For in vivo studies, the dose would be carefully selected to avoid systemic toxicity while achieving sufficient target inhibition.
